The International Festival of Architecture on Video is an event created by the Department of Architectural Technology and Design "Pierluigi Spadolini" of the University of Florence, sponsored by the Tuscan Region, the Province of Florence and by the Municipality of Florence, and organised by iMage.

The Festival is a meeting point for a discussion on communication technology in architecture, and its aims include the presentation of the most recent works of communication, documented on video, film and the new media; studies on project methodology based on the application of audiovisual tools and digital systems for architecture; research on teaching applications; a discussion on new theories.



BEYOND MEDIA/OLTRE I MEDIA





The theme of the 2002 edition of the International Festival of Architecture on Video is BEYOND MEDIA/OLTRE I MEDIA. What is the role of architectural communication technology today? How do architects use the new media? What new patterns are emerging in connection with architectural technology? What vocational prospects are there for the new generations? The problems raised by the arrival of the new media lead to an exploration of the various spheres of contemporary production, from television to the cinema and the Internet, providing plenty of room for research on digital communication technology.

The dissemination of communication systems redefines professional roles and develops methods for planning, producing and using architecture. BEYOND MEDIA/OLTRE I MEDIA will place the emphasis on the most significant aspects of the changes produced by the media. It will present a picture of the most interesting research and draw attention to the consequences of using the media, with a view to defining the new application scenarios.
